Hi all,
First up, I have a strong family history of Bowel cancer. Mum, uncle, Nan on same side. Testing doesn't show the gene .
and so... I always think I have cancer.
last year I could feel this lump on my right abdomen. It comes up every now and then but disappears. I get a feeling of fullness there and then can touch it. My husband has felt it, I've felt it, and I've even taken a photo of it. it's not round but kind of long like a little sausage. A bit of anemia. So they did a colonoscopy which was all good.
it hasn't stopped appearing and disappearing. I've just learnt to not freak out about it. I kind of just pat it like a baby when I feel it.
anyway.
now I've got pressure in my coccyx area and cramp fullness in lower abdomen. It's on and off but always at the same time. I've also been having night sweats that come and go hard and fast but are so yucky I feel Nauseous. I also feel bloated. I haven't lost any weight.
I've mentioned it to my doctor, who mentioned it sounded like maybe the start of endometriosis. Although I'm 11 days to next period and been having it for 2 days.
I felt so silly when I was sure I had mums bowel cancer last year but the colonoscopy was clear. That I feel like if I bring this up again I'll be like the boy who cried wolf.
does any of this sound like anyone's symptoms or should I chill out and possibly see a councillor instead?
